A collection of questionably humorous git sayings.
git-jokes was started as a project for the #git IRC channel on the Freenode IRC Network. A new joke was written for the channel's topic each day. Being funny on a continuous basis quickly becomes impossible, so jokes started to get reused. This repo contains a list of (most of) these funnies, in an easy-to-digest form.
There is also a git plugin, so you can now type git joke and receive a random joke! To use this, add the git-joke script from this repository somewhere on your $PATH. For example, you could wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EugeneKay/git-jokes/lulz/git-joke
into /usr/local/bin. Remember to verify the scripts' contents, and run chmod +x git-joke to make it executable by git.
All jokes are Copyright by Eugene Evgenevich Kashpureff, except the ones that aren't. If you are responsible for a joke, feel free to submit a Pull Request with a whitespace edit on the line containing your joke, so that credit will appear in git blame output. All jokes are licensed under the Do What The Fuck You Want To Public License, version 2 (WTFPL). This means you are free to use these jokes anywhere, with anybody, for any purpose.
New jokes should be submitted as a Pull Request, adding to the end of the list. If you're feeling lazy, you can email your submissions to the Author instead.
